M? make ? ［误］ The little boy was made repeat the whole story.? ［正］ The little boy was made to repeat the whole story.? ［误］ The father made his son to do his homework from morning till night.? ［正］ The father made his son do his homework from morning till night.? ［析］ make 的句型为make somebody do (doing) something.但在被动语态中原来被省去的不定式符号to要被还原回来。? ［误］ I always do this mistake.? ［正］ I always make this mistake.? ［析］ 英语中do和make是十分不易弄清的两个动词，do常用于谈论工作时或某种不确定的活动时，如： do a favour(帮个忙)，do one's best(竭尽全力)，do good(有益)， do harm(有害)，而多数情况下常用make, 如： make a suggestion, make a cake, make a bed(收拾床)，make a noise, make money等等。? ［误］ This wine was made of grapes.? ［正］ This wine was made from grapes.? ［析］ 当成品制成后，其原料的性质有所改变时应用make from，否则用make of， 如： This door was made of iron.? ［误］ Hard work can often make up a lack of intelligence.? ［正］ Hard work can often make up for a lack of intelligence.? ［析］ make up是创造、编织，而make up for是弥补……的不足之处。上句应译为勤奋工作可以弥补天资的不足。? |
